This is my DPRK undefeated military power set.   I'm missing one silver proof sadly (the kwangmyongsong-1).   
 

Well the missile set I collect for two reasons.  I used to be a missile-eer when i was in the air force.  So NK was always a topic and they look pretty cool by my rounds that I was awarded from Space command, so the theme is eh not too similar but the story is the same for both countries.   After I got those, then I've started keeping an eye on political coins.   Like you said, if you detach yourself from any emotion involved, they are very interesting and clearly a key in NK's history.   Thus I believe political silver and gold is very collectible.  As I know now and the distant future, I have no intention to sell these.  but as someone told me the problem if I did want to sell them is its not so easy advertise.   Lack of labels.   Using image only etc.   NGC won't even grade DPRK coins along with a hand full of other countries.    
I guess the lure to me on these is first the hunt for them.   Then its tracking any knowledge on them as I only have the sellers release notes and what google translate and they tell me.   Mintage is difficult to obtain, items difficult to obtain, the story is rather clear but detailed information is difficult to obtain.    Seems everything about these coins are difficult and really require work and as someone in the US, overseas communications with a 12 hour time difference so info comes step by step as you think of questions.   
As for next,  I'll probably be looking for some political AU from NK.
